"What?" Sam asked.
He held out some rubber gloves. "I brought these for us."
"That was smart." Sam smiled, he wasn't a complete idiot at times.
She pulled her hands into the rubber gloves and they they went round looking for anything that would link him to Abi's abduction. They'd finished downstairs and hadn't found anything so went upstairs. Sam tried Hugh's bedroom while Phil went into the bathroom. Sam got on all fours and searched under Hugh's bed, she reached under and pulled out a laptop. She'd never seen this laptop before though.
"Phil." She called, after a few moments he came walking in.
"What?"
"This laptop have you ever seen it?" Sam asked. Phil shook his head. "Neither have I."
"I'll look through the files, you keep searching yeah?" Phil offered.
"Yeah ok, thank you."
"That's alright." Phil replied taking the laptop off her. The laptop came to life, there wasn't a password which he was happy about. He clicked on to My Documents and while waiting watched Sam searching through the draws. There was a document labelled 'S and A', he double clicked but a security password came up.
"Sam there's a password, I think this is it. I think this is where he's controlling everything." Phil said, Sam turned and smiled.
"We've almost got him Phil."
"Do you want me to take this back to the car, that way we;ll have more time looking through the files and trying to crack the password." He asked.
"Alright, I'll stay here looking through his stuff."
Phil left her to it and went back out the back way, he walked down to his car and put the laptop under the car seat with a small smile. 'We're going to get Abi back.' He walked down and was about to round the corner when through a gap in the bushes hiding him from Hugh's house view he saw Hugh locking his car and walking back into his house. Phil got his phone out but knew if he rang her Hugh would hear the rining and know someone was there, he'd probably guess who it was too.
Sam kneeled on the floor looking in the last draw, there was neatly balled up socks. She buried through them searching for anything. An arm held on to her tightly round her waist and a hand went over her mouth. Startled, she attempted to scream but the hand was too tight. She was pulled to her feet and the hand was pulled away.
"You really think I wouldn't know you'd come here?" Hugh asked. Sam didn't reply, she was too scared. He turned them away and she hit the bed with a small thud. "Get out."
She got up and ran out the house, she ran down to the corner where Phil was still waiting. He enveloped her in his arms as she started crying.
"I thought he was going to kill me." She whispered.
"I won't let him hurt you Sam I promise."
